So it's been just over a half a year since I've gotten rakeback. Going into it, I thought if I got $50 a year, that would be a nice little uptick. So far, I've gotten $43, so I'm pretty far ahead of my admittedly conservative estimate. A couple observations:
1. I'm not using FTP points anymore to get tournament dollars. In the course of a given year, I'd probably use my points to get somewhere between $25-$35 worth of tournament buy ins through satellites. That's gone now.
2. The little deposits into my account probably mask some mediocre play. It probably suggests to me in my brain that I am playing better than I actually am. My sharkscope graph has been almost completely level for quite some time, but if you factor in the $30 or so dollars I've made in rakeback over that time, it's probably consistent with my career arc.
3. FTP has some really cool stuff that I'd like to purchase if I ever got the points to do it. I've never had this many points before (I have just over 2000), but with rakeback, I'm probably never going to use them.
